Hello,
I recently updated to FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE and as per the release notes I disabled the integrity check for my mirror so my system would boot. Now, I would either like to migrate to GPT or restore the integrity of my mirror and keep my MBR setup but I don't know what the best way to do that would be in my particular case. So my question is how do I best set up my mirror again using gmirror? And will that have any effect on my zpool or can that stay in place?
My current setup is as follows:
I found this very nice how to in another thread. Could I just leave my zpool in place and create the rest of the partitions as described there?
